LAKEPORT, Calif. – The seventh and eighth grade students of Konocti Christian Academy invites all members of the community to watch their performance of William Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing,” on Tuesday, May 6.

The performance will take place at 7 p.m. in the Little Theater on the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St.  

This will be their second opportunity to perform, as they will have had their primary production at KCA’s ninth annual Renaissance Faire the previous Saturday.

Their teacher, Ben Sombs, explained, “The students have an amazing understanding of Shakespearean humor, and they truly bring the story to life.”

The production features an abbreviated script which retains the original language of Shakespeare and full costuming of the 18 students portraying 19 different characters.

There will be no charge, but any donations would be gladly accepted.

The students have been raising money for their end of the year trip to the Ashland Shakespeare Festival, and would appreciate your assistance.

Join them for an evening of merriment.

KCA is located on the Lake County Fairgrounds in Lakeport and continues to offer quality Christian education for students in kindergarten through eighth grade, which includes challenging academics, high standards in character, Biblical training, and a low teacher-to-student ratio.
